Whilst working in the U.S. Navy, Cincinnati-born actor and comic Gary Owens was named "Funniest Serviceman in America", which led to a passion for comedy and several stand-up opportunities. In 1997, Owens had his big break on Black Entertainment Television's stand-up showcase Comic View. He followed with roles in the comedy films Daddy Day Care, Little Man, and College, among many others. Owens has released two stand-up DVDs: Breakin' Out The Park and Urban Legend. He has also released the comedy specials Gary Owen: True Story (2012), Gary Owen: I Agree with Myself (2015), and Gary Owen: #DoinWhatIDo (2019). In 2009, he had a recurring role on Tyler Perry's TBS show House of Payne as Zack and in 2016, he had a 10-episode show on BET called The Gary Owen Show.
